Pros

Amazing bonuses, full benefits, free breakfast and lunch, great coworkers. Sequoia is good at hiring people whose personalities mesh so it's always fun to catch up with coworkers at lunch and social gatherings. It's also very cool to work alongside some of the most brilliant minds in tech/VC, and be one of the first to know about new and upcoming companies.

Cons

There is little flexibility for underlings for things like family emergencies, new mothers' needs, doctor appointments, etc. and don't even try to ask if you can work from home one day. The managing partners have a firm policy against working remotely.

Pros

Hypercompetitive outliers with hearts of gold. Extreme dedication to helping the daring build legendary companies from idea to IPO and beyond. Demanding and supportive.

Cons

For perhaps the first time in your life, you will not be the smartest person in the room. The imposter syndrome is real.
